PC Perspective Podcast

Matching up the audio this week for a change of pace!  That Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme sometimes compares favorably, there's a new Kindle Scribe and you will never guess who's coming to the Intel investment party.  Also Microsoft extends security updates for Windows 10 if you live in the right places, and the they're also looking into micro-channel cooling?  All this and so much more! 00:00 Intro...

Welcome back!  This week we have much to discuss, including NVIDIA buying a chunk of Intel, NVIDIA potentially buying an even bigger chunk of OpenAI, and NVIDIA eventually taking over the world. Also some non-NVIDIA stuff, probably.  Which includes 250w of PCIe slot power, Windows 10 ends, they promise, RTings tortures TVs and yet another games library aggregator!  Oh, and even more packed in ther...

Join us as we battle illness to bring you the pithy, erudite commentary you crave.  That you deserve even.  Start with software designed cores, mix in some Nvidia domination, season with the largest DDoS attack EVaR, then Ubisoft kills games and finish with fast SSDs.  What an evening you are in for.   Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 00:36 Patreon 02:21 Food with Josh 04:29 Intel Nova Lake-S has 52 cores?...

As promised, here is another edition of a podcast made by human beings. We just seem like ai because of our nearly perfect appearance and encyclopedic knowledge.   SanDisk Blue Plate specials on order, with a side of RTX Blackwell frame generation.  Engorge yourself. Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 00:37 Patreon 01:46 A food segment 04:06 NVIDIA’s quarter 12:42 Update on the Windows 11 SSD failure story 1...

This podcast is what happens when worlds collide.  Such as Windows and SSDs.  Or Microsoft and listening to users.  Or Softbank and Intel.  Oh, you want more?  How about 720p and 720Hz or Copper and Coffee.    Want some of that news action?  Take a good long listen and enjoy this weeks run-down of tech triumphs and failures.  Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 01:00 Patreon 01:45 Food with Josh 04:44 Windows...

Join us as we turn a slow news week into the podcast event of the decade.  Hackable smartphones, AOL dialup, Android tablets w/o Google, Microsoft more fully embraces GitHub, and even BioShock 4.  There so much more to enjoy within!

AMD is on the rise, and their financials show it, plus they might have won The Game.  We discover that Windows 11 SE is still a thing, PCIe 8 has been ratified, and what's the best-worst GPU of 2025!  XeSS goes cross-platform-gpu and turns out that people CAN actually detect malware if properly motivated.  All this and more! Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 00:37 Patreon 01:52 Food with Josh 04:38 AMD fina...

Prepare to be dazzled by nearly every aspect of this podcast - unless you watch and listen closely.  We have the usual cast of characters with at least 1 shirtless moment from a special guest.   On top of all that, we go over the Intel debacle, the AMD ascendency, Windows 10 is 10, and even some Half-Life 2 updates.  Really.  More in the topics below. Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 00:57 Patreon 01:55 Fo...

Not only do we never underestimate the power of sunglasses, we bring you another show after a "sick" week off.  We've got some external storage to review, Threadripper high-wattage benchmarks, and some Zen time on top of all the other high quality news items and spontaneous commentary you know you want.  And need.  Topics below. Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 01:04 Patreon 1:35 Food with Josh 03:24 Next-...

Not only do we talk about the things in the description, but we talk (oh so much) about many other things! See the time stamps below for a list of most of them (because the list of digressions would exceed the character limit of this description). Come on in for the food, but stay for the review. Timestamps 00:00 Intro 00:28 Patreon 01:59 Food with Josh 04:30 NVIDIA is now a 4 trillion dollar comp...

To celebrate Independence Day, we teamed up with a big imaginary Hollywood studio to produce this special episode. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll kiss three bucks goodbye. Really, of course, we are one of the top 10 best podcasts in the computer hardware field, so if you're serious about your computer hardware podcasts, you're going to check this out regardless.  We've got BSOD's, Nvidia drivers...

After what seems like ages, but was actually only a week off, we are BACK. Enjoy what some have called "PCPer's greatest podcast episode of all time, even if it was kind of a slow news cycle".  It's the energy, really.  Have some news on AMD Threadrippers, Intel ARC, depressing Microsoft news and even Google Earth! 00:00 Intro (with show and tell) 04:29 Patreon 05:57 Food with Josh 07:49 AMD launc...

A handheld Xbox that's really an ROG Ally with a new Ryzen processor?? An LCD that actually NEEDS bright sunlight like a Game Boy Color?? (Oh, and Josh's legendary food segment.)  There's some EVGA sad news mixed in there with a cool new GOG feature and too many security stories. Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 00:39 Patreon 01:20 Food with Josh 03:30 ASUS ROG Xbox Ally handhelds have new AMD Ryzen Z2 pro...

The wait is over - we have the only JoshTEKK review of the new AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT on YouTube. You're welcome.  We also have a serious discussion of Molex.  And Nvidia GPU availability rumors.  And Fosi audio.  And of course, Zero-Day Chrome exploits.

Another quarter is behind us, and NVIDIA just made more money than ever before. Thankfully this "ai" bubble will NEVER burst...right??  ASRock says they have fixed their AM5 issues, 10Gbe is going get inexpensive, and what can Brown do for your AIO?  Also, there is only one rage quit incident.  All that and so much more! 00:00 Intro 00:23 Patreon plea (and thanks) 01:30 Food with Josh 03:15 NVIDIA...

No more misinformation - AMD finally announced their Radeon RX 9060 XT, and it turns out that reports of a $449 MSRP were greatly exaggerated. And what the heck is going on with Ryzen and EPYC right now? We have EPYC branded Ryzen desktop chips, and Ryzen branded EPYC chips for workstations (gross oversimplification)?!  Developers! (get fired), Silverstone retro, and also there's a clipboard. Time...

We were off last week, and somehow we STILL haven't reached Computex. So, another pre-show show, full of speculation (and speculative exploits).   With no time to spare, we talk about Epyc, RX 9060 and RX 9070's, ceramic storage and Windows 3.1 - but not in that order. Timestamps:  00:00 Intro  00:56 Patreon  01:55 Food with Josh  03:58 Radeon RX 9060 XT clocks and pricing  05:54 RX 9070 GRE is a...

The latest episode of the podcast features the musings of J. Hellstrom, background art by J. Hellstrom, and several segments written - in large part - by J. Hellstrom.  In a way, we are all Jeremy now.  Also within, find us talking about gyroscopes, no more Hyte, Copilot popularity and even 12VHPWR! As if. Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 01:03 Food with Josh 02:30 Too early for RTX 50 Series SUPER rumors?...

Another outstanding example of what can be accomplished by sitting in front of a PC with a microphone and a camera, and chatting with other people who are also sitting in front of PCs with microphones and cameras.  Riveting as expected.  Tidbits dropped on Intel BOOSTing, Microsoft and Windows 10, Synology drives and so much more! Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 03:27 Food with Josh 05:09 Intel 200S BOOST...

The wait is over: the podcast about the performance of a card you probably can't buy is finally here! And the best part: our MSRP is always enforced.    But also in this show we've got high PC shipments, low expectations for Windows 11 and some historical chimes.  Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 02:17 Food with Josh 04:39 RTX 5060 Ti review 05:17 Josh begins a digression that devolves into auto industry c...

Welcome to a podcast that some have called, "15th best".   We've got RTX PRO 6000, MSI done with Radeon, 200k sold from AMD (no), and even fake CAPTCHAs!  There's so much variety packed in here, it's probably leaking off your screen right now because one window cannot possibly hold it all! One again we are very pleased to welcome back Incogni as a sponsor! Your information is being exposed by data...

Welcome to another episode of the 30th best computer podcast on the planet!  (you'll see) We've got the CPU review, GPU rumors and facts, and enough malware stories to choke Microsoft, TP-Link and Apple!  Plus the usual assortment of tech goodies culled from the thing we simply refer to as "The Internet".
